Liked: Cleanliness
It wasn't your typical hotel, but rather an old guesthouse, just as I expected. The room was clean but very small. I only saw the owner when I entered and again when I left. I didn't have a chance to ask about the heater because I couldn't find one. Breakfast was good, although I wanted a boiled egg and they told me I had to cook it myself, so I didn't have it. I stayed two nights, but the room was never cleaned. Check-out was at 10 am, very early, even though I had arrived almost at night, so I couldn't really enjoy the house. If you were looking to be close to shops, this isn't the place; it was about a 20-minute walk away. But if you're looking for total peace and quiet away from everyone, this is it.

Gorgeous old guesthouse, simple breakfast, but lots of cute touches such as port in the room, and the vast array of teas on offer….coffee was awful, but cafe lurlines around the corner is excellent if you need the good stuff….the floors are creaky but that’s part of the charm ….we loved our stay

Relaxed stay in the beautiful blue mountains

Evelyn and Iain were great hosts. The property is very historic, interesting and quiet. The homemade muesli was a highlight. As was yoga with Evelyn. Would love to come again for longer.

Beyond our expectations

Our stay was beyond our expectations. The Kurrara is a lovely, quaint old style guest house that has a lot of charm and character. It is very comfortable and the breakfast was quite good. It is also situated close to the Three Sister tracks and the old town with shopping and restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and met other couples who were staying at the Guest House.
